199 *
200 * Data Structures
201 * ===============
202 *
203 * These functions work primarily with three different kinds of data
204 * structures:
205 *
206 * - "struct ofproto", which represents an OpenFlow switch.
207 *
208 * - "struct ofport", which represents a port within an ofproto.
209 *
210 * - "struct rule", which represents an OpenFlow flow within an ofproto.
211 *
212 * Each of these data structures contains all of the implementation-independent
213 * generic state for the respective concept, called the "base" state. None of
214 * them contains any extra space for ofproto implementations to use. Instead,
215 * each implementation is expected to declare its own data structure that
216 * contains an instance of the generic data structure plus additional
217 * implementation-specific members, called the "derived" state. The
218 * implementation can use casts or (preferably) the CONTAINER_OF macro to
219 * obtain access to derived state given only a pointer to the embedded generic
220 * data structure.
221 *
222 *
223 * Life Cycle
224 * ==========
225 *
226 * Four stylized functions accompany each of these data structures:
227 *
228 * "alloc" "construct" "destruct" "dealloc"
229 * ------------ ---------------- --------------- --------------
230 * ofproto ->alloc ->construct ->destruct ->dealloc
231 * ofport ->port_alloc ->port_construct ->port_destruct ->port_dealloc
232 * rule ->rule_alloc ->rule_construct ->rule_destruct ->rule_dealloc
233 *
234 * Any instance of a given data structure goes through the following life
235 * cycle:
236 *
237 * 1. The client calls the "alloc" function to obtain raw memory. If "alloc"
238 * fails, skip all the other steps.
239 *
240 * 2. The client initializes all of the data structure's base state. If this
241 * fails, skip to step 7.
242 *
243 * 3. The client calls the "construct" function. The implementation
244 * initializes derived state. It may refer to the already-initialized
245 * base state. If "construct" fails, skip to step 6.
246 *
247 * 4. The data structure is now initialized and in use.
248 *
249 * 5. When the data structure is no longer needed, the client calls the
250 * "destruct" function. The implementation uninitializes derived state.
251 * The base state has not been uninitialized yet, so the implementation
252 * may still refer to it.
253 *
254 * 6. The client uninitializes all of the data structure's base state.
255 *
256 * 7. The client calls the "dealloc" to free the raw memory. The
257 * implementation must not refer to base or derived state in the data
258 * structure, because it has already been uninitialized.
259 *
260 * Each "alloc" function allocates and returns a new instance of the respective
261 * data structure. The "alloc" function is not given any information about the
262 * use of the new data structure, so it cannot perform much initialization.
263 * Its purpose is just to ensure that the new data structure has enough room
264 * for base and derived state. It may return a null pointer if memory is not
265 * available, in which case none of the other functions is called.
266 *
267 * Each "construct" function initializes derived state in its respective data
268 * structure. When "construct" is called, all of the base state has already
269 * been initialized, so the "construct" function may refer to it. The
270 * "construct" function is allowed to fail, in which case the client calls the
271 * "dealloc" function (but not the "destruct" function).
272 *
273 * Each "destruct" function uninitializes and frees derived state in its
274 * respective data structure. When "destruct" is called, the base state has
275 * not yet been uninitialized, so the "destruct" function may refer to it. The
276 * "destruct" function is not allowed to fail.
277 *
278 * Each "dealloc" function frees raw memory that was allocated by the the
279 * "alloc" function. The memory's base and derived members might not have ever
280 * been initialized (but if "construct" returned successfully, then it has been
281 * "destruct"ed already). The "dealloc" function is not allowed to fail.
282 *
283 *
284 * Conventions
285 * ===========
286 *
287 * Most of these functions return 0 if they are successful or a positive error
288 * code on failure. Depending on the function, valid error codes are either
90bf1e07 289 * errno values or OFPERR_* OpenFlow error codes.
abe529af
BP
290 *
291 * Most of these functions are expected to execute synchronously, that is, to
292 * block as necessary to obtain a result. Thus, these functions may return
293 * EAGAIN (or EWOULDBLOCK or EINPROGRESS) only where the function descriptions
294 * explicitly say those errors are a possibility. We may relax this
295 * requirement in the future if and when we encounter performance problems. */

334 * Construction
335 * ============
abe529af 336 *
073e2a6f
BP
337 * ->construct() should not modify any base members of the ofproto. The
338 * client will initialize the ofproto's 'ports' and 'tables' members after
339 * construction is complete.
6c1491fb 340 *
073e2a6f
BP
341 * When ->construct() is called, the client does not yet know how many flow
342 * tables the datapath supports, so ofproto->n_tables will be 0 and
0f5f95a9
BP
343 * ofproto->tables will be NULL. ->construct() should call
344 * ofproto_init_tables() to allocate and initialize ofproto->n_tables and
345 * ofproto->tables. Each flow table will be initially empty, so
346 * ->construct() should delete flows from the underlying datapath, if
347 * necessary, rather than populating the tables.
abe529af
BP
348 *
349 * Only one ofproto instance needs to be supported for any given datapath.
350 * If a datapath is already open as part of one "ofproto", then another
351 * attempt to "construct" the same datapath as part of another ofproto is
5bf0e941
BP
352 * allowed to fail with an error.
353 *
354 * ->construct() returns 0 if successful, otherwise a positive errno
7ee20df1
BP
355 * value.
356 *
357 *
358 * Destruction
359 * ===========
360 *
073e2a6f
BP
361 * If 'ofproto' has any pending asynchronous operations, ->destruct()
362 * must complete all of them by calling ofoperation_complete().
7ee20df1 363 *
073e2a6f
BP
364 * ->destruct() must also destroy all remaining rules in the ofproto's
365 * tables, by passing each remaining rule to ofproto_rule_destroy(). The
366 * client will destroy the flow tables themselves after ->destruct()
367 * returns.

476 * for each dumped port.
477 *
478 * - If ->port_poll() reports that a specific port has changed, then the
479 * base ofproto will query that port with ->port_query_by_name() and
480 * construct or destruct ofports as necessary to reflect the updated
481 * set of ports.
482 *
483 * - If ->port_poll() returns ENOBUFS to report an unspecified port set
484 * change, then the base ofproto will iterate over all of the

486 * initialization, and construct and destruct ofports to reflect all of

548 * The client might not be entirely in control of the ports within an

550 * set of ports in a datapath, and the Linux datapath allows the system

552 * this reason, the client needs a way to iterate through all the ports
553 * that are actually in a datapath. These functions provide that
554 * functionality.
555 *
556 * The 'state' pointer provides the implementation a place to
557 * keep track of its position. Its format is opaque to the caller.
558 *
559 * The ofproto provider retains ownership of the data that it stores into
560 * ->port_dump_next()'s 'port' argument. The data must remain valid until
561 * at least the next call to ->port_dump_next() or ->port_dump_done() for
562 * 'state'. The caller will not modify or free it.
563 *
564 * Details
565 * =======
566 *
567 * ->port_dump_start() attempts to begin dumping the ports in 'ofproto'.
568 * On success, it should return 0 and initialize '*statep' with any data
569 * needed for iteration. On failure, returns a positive errno value, and
570 * the client will not call ->port_dump_next() or ->port_dump_done().
571 *
572 * ->port_dump_next() attempts to retrieve another port from 'ofproto' for
573 * 'state'. If there is another port, it should store the port's
574 * information into 'port' and return 0. It should return EOF if all ports
575 * have already been iterated. Otherwise, on error, it should return a
576 * positive errno value. This function will not be called again once it
577 * returns nonzero once for a given iteration (but the 'port_dump_done'
578 * function will be called afterward).
579 *
580 * ->port_dump_done() allows the implementation to release resources used
581 * for iteration. The caller might decide to stop iteration in the middle
582 * by calling this function before ->port_dump_next() returns nonzero.
583 *
584 * Usage Example
585 * =============
586 *
587 * int error;
588 * void *state;

691 * Asynchronous Operation Support
692 * ==============================
693 *
694 * The life-cycle operations on rules can operate asynchronously, meaning
695 * that ->rule_construct() and ->rule_destruct() only need to initiate
696 * their respective operations and do not need to wait for them to complete
697 * before they return. ->rule_modify_actions() also operates
698 * asynchronously.
699 *
700 * An ofproto implementation reports the success or failure of an
701 * asynchronous operation on a rule using the rule's 'pending' member,
702 * which points to a opaque "struct ofoperation" that represents the
703 * ongoing opreation. When the operation completes, the ofproto
704 * implementation calls ofoperation_complete(), passing the ofoperation and
705 * an error indication.
706 *
707 * Only the following contexts may call ofoperation_complete():
708 *
709 * - The function called to initiate the operation,
710 * e.g. ->rule_construct() or ->rule_destruct(). This is the best
711 * choice if the operation completes quickly.
712 *
713 * - The implementation's ->run() function.
714 *
715 * - The implementation's ->destruct() function.
716 *
717 * The ofproto base code updates the flow table optimistically, assuming
718 * that the operation will probably succeed:
719 *
720 * - ofproto adds or replaces the rule in the flow table before calling
721 * ->rule_construct().
722 *
723 * - ofproto updates the rule's actions before calling
724 * ->rule_modify_actions().
725 *
726 * - ofproto removes the rule before calling ->rule_destruct().
5bf0e941 727 *
7ee20df1
BP
728 * With one exception, when an asynchronous operation completes with an
729 * error, ofoperation_complete() backs out the already applied changes:
730 *
731 * - If adding or replacing a rule in the flow table fails, ofproto
732 * removes the new rule or restores the original rule.
733 *
734 * - If modifying a rule's actions fails, ofproto restores the original
735 * actions.
736 *
737 * - Removing a rule is not allowed to fail. It must always succeed.
738 *
739 * The ofproto base code serializes operations: if any operation is in
740 * progress on a given rule, ofproto postpones initiating any new operation
741 * on that rule until the pending operation completes. Therefore, every
742 * operation must eventually complete through a call to
743 * ofoperation_complete() to avoid delaying new operations indefinitely
744 * (including any OpenFlow request that affects the rule in question, even
745 * just to query its statistics).
746 *
747 *
748 * Construction
749 * ============
750 *
751 * When ->rule_construct() is called, the caller has already inserted
752 * 'rule' into 'rule->ofproto''s flow table numbered 'rule->table_id'.
753 * There are two cases:
754 *
755 * - 'rule' is a new rule in its flow table. In this case,
756 * ofoperation_get_victim(rule) returns NULL.
757 *
758 * - 'rule' is replacing an existing rule in its flow table that had the
759 * same matching criteria and priority. In this case,
a6a62132
BP
760 * ofoperation_get_victim(rule) returns the rule being replaced (the
761 * "victim" rule).
7ee20df1
BP
762 *
763 * ->rule_construct() should set the following in motion:
764 *
765 * - Validate that the matching rule in 'rule->cr' is supported by the
766 * datapath. For example, if the rule's table does not support
767 * registers, then it is an error if 'rule->cr' does not wildcard all
5bf0e941
BP
768 * registers.
769 *
770 * - Validate that 'rule->actions' and 'rule->n_actions' are well-formed
7ee20df1
BP
771 * OpenFlow actions that the datapath can correctly implement. The
772 * validate_actions() function (in ofp-util.c) can be useful as a model
773 * for action validation, but it accepts all of the OpenFlow actions
774 * that OVS understands. If your ofproto implementation only
5bf0e941
BP
775 * implements a subset of those, then you should implement your own
776 * action validation.
777 *
7ee20df1
BP
778 * - If the rule is valid, update the datapath flow table, adding the new
779 * rule or replacing the existing one.
5bf0e941 780 *
a6a62132
BP
781 * - If 'rule' is replacing an existing rule, uninitialize any derived
782 * state for the victim rule, as in step 5 in the "Life Cycle"
783 * described above.
784 *
7ee20df1 785 * (On failure, the ofproto code will roll back the insertion from the flow
a6a62132
BP
786 * table, either removing 'rule' or replacing it by the victim rule if
787 * there is one.)
08944c1d 788 *
7ee20df1 789 * ->rule_construct() must act in one of the following ways:
08944c1d 790 *
7ee20df1 791 * - If it succeeds, it must call ofoperation_complete() and return 0.
5bf0e941 792 *
7ee20df1 793 * - If it fails, it must act in one of the following ways:
5bf0e941 794 *
7ee20df1 795 * * Call ofoperation_complete() and return 0.
5bf0e941 796 *
90bf1e07
BP
797 * * Return an OpenFlow error code. (Do not call
798 * ofoperation_complete() in this case.)
5bf0e941 799 *
dc12d1c3
BP
800 * Either way, ->rule_destruct() will not be called for 'rule', but
801 * ->rule_dealloc() will be.
7ee20df1
BP
802 *
803 * - If the operation is only partially complete, then it must return 0.
804 * Later, when the operation is complete, the ->run() or ->destruct()
805 * function must call ofoperation_complete() to report success or
806 * failure.
807 *
808 * ->rule_construct() should not modify any base members of struct rule.
809 *
810 *
811 * Destruction
812 * ===========
813 *
814 * When ->rule_destruct() is called, the caller has already removed 'rule'
815 * from 'rule->ofproto''s flow table. ->rule_destruct() should set in
816 * motion removing 'rule' from the datapath flow table. If removal
817 * completes synchronously, it should call ofoperation_complete().
818 * Otherwise, the ->run() or ->destruct() function must later call
